"I'm sure I'll think of something, but it's going to be worse then not giving me the money. It might be something really valuable"
"I'll talk to you later" Jack said, Click. He had hung up on him, Opening a file drawer. He got his savings and began to count, For the past three months. He couldn't have possibly made twenty thousand dollars, But he had to hope for it. He just had to, If he didn't have the money...What would he ask for? His house maybe? He couldn't risk his family to be homeless, If he didn't have the money tomorrow what would he do?
"Damn it's not enough.."

Jack Bolton waited for Micheal to arrive, What could he possibly want if he didn't have the money? He apparently didn't have it. And Micheal would know that because even he couldn't come up with that kind of money in three months. He was willing to give up what he had right now, But he wasn't so sure if Micheal would accept.
"Jack" He heard, Micheal sat down right across from him, he had a grin and looked at his watch, There was a glint in his eye that was expecting for something, Jack wasn't willing to give up anything. And he wondered what Micheal had in mind
"Look, I don't have the money. But if you want what I have right now.." Jack said, taking out a folder where all of his cash was. But Micheal cut him off before he can even show it, His grin turned into a frown as he cleared his throat, putting on his black sunglasses.
"I don't want your spare cash Bolton, I want twenty thousand dollars, But it looks like you don't have that... I was thinking last night what to ask from you, and I had the perfect idea. See, I don't have a nanny.." Micheal trailed, No. He wasn't thinking of making Jack do all the work for his snobby little kids?
"If you're asking for domestic help, I don't think I can help you with that" He immediately cut him off, Micheal shook his head and gave him a small grin. It was clear that he was enjoying torturing Jack, Even a blind man could sense that.
"Bring your son tomorrow, and tell him to pack his things" Micheal said, Jack stood in horror as the man before him started talking about thier so called deal, If Troy wouldn't show up tomorrow he was going to sue Jack, And he didn't even have the money to pay a lawyer. If he didn't agree with his terms.. He would have to give up everything.
"What?"
"Two years with me, It's called Bond Labor" Micheal said, walking out of the local diner and driving off, Jack stood there, frozen in the spot. And one thing came across his mind
What the hell did he get Troy into?

"When I hear my favorite song, I know that we belong.." Gabriella sang, Pointing out the pitches. Gabriella has been teaching Troy for the past hour the right notes for the song, the upcoming musical was in two weeks. And they seriously needed to rehearse, If not, Ms. Darbus would be forced to cancel the show. And who wanted that?
"When I hear my favorite song, I know that we belong.." Troy tried, but Gabriella just shook her head and explained once again, "See what you're doing is that you're adding two pitches at one word. What you do is that you just let the note slide down,."
"Fine, but I swear. This show has no hope at all, It's been two months and the only thing we know are these songs" Troy exclaimed, Gabriella sighed and nodded in agreement,
"Yeah you're right, there's no hope for this show... Even Ms. Darbus would admit that, and she's the extraordinary one" Gabriella added, Troy laughed as they went out of the music room, Troy went to the cafeteria and went to his usual lunch table, With Chad, Ryan, Zeke and Jason.
"Hey man, we were just talking about Ryan's hot sister" Chad said, giving Troy a hi five, Troy arched his eyebrow and turned his head towards Ryan "Who is this hot sister, Ryan?"
"Her name's Sharpay. They invaded my wallet and saw a picture, now they're worshipping her" Ryan answered, Troy nudged for them and they handed the wallet, He looked at her. "Wow" Golden, beautiful blonde hair. Piercing brown eyes.. She was breathtaking.
"Well she surely doesn't look like you Ry!" Troy joked, Ryan hit him in his head as he got the wallet from his best friend. Troy laughed and joked around with his friends, What he didn't know. Is that Sharpay would have a bigger role in his life than just a simple picture.
He would have to work for her.

"Hey Dad" Troy said entering from the back door, His dad looked like he was deep in thought, Jack had his eyes pierced on Troy, and it looked like something really bothered him. Troy wondered what it was, But he knew how to cheer his dad up, a good game of basketball!
"Hey dad, It's only six. You up for a game of ball?" I said, He nodded as they walked outside to the court, Jack passed the ball, "Fake left Troy!" He did a fake left and swerved to the right and shot the ball inside the basket. "And Troy Bolton scores!" Troy said, His dad rolled his eyes and smirked "My son is so full of himself, Just like his old man"
"Wait, did you just say you were old?"
"Uh...No! I meant like...Older then you"
"Whatever Dad!" They both laughed, another game started, and Troy still won, His dad seemed to daze off and was thinking of something deep, he finally had the courage to ask his dad what was wrong. He just hoped he would tell him
"Hey dad are you ok?"
"Yeah" Jack answered, he knew that Troy noticed his odd behavior. How could he tell his son about it? That he was going to have to work for two years for the Evans? Especially that the whole case is about money..
"Troy, I need to tell you something."
"Tell me dad"
"I made a deal with the Evans three months ago, twenty thousand dollars. I don't have the money right now, so they asked for something that I never really thought I had to give.."
"Which is?"
"They asked for you Troy"
